Acceleration due to gravity is given by g = (GM / R2) what is the equation of the fractional error Δg/g in measurement of gravity g ? [G & M constant](a) – (ΔR / R) (b) 2 (ΔR / R) (c) – 2(ΔR / R) (d) (1/2) (ΔR / R) |

Answer» (b) 2 (ΔR / R) Explanation: g = [(GM) / R2] ∵ G & M are constant g is function of (1/R2) i.e. (1/R)2 fractional error (Δg / g) = 2(ΔR / R) |
